I’d like to buy one, but I’m kinda confused about which models can be jailbroken and their pros and cons. Ideally it would have a >6" screen and cost between 60-160 euros, 200 max
This tool lets you search for all Android e readers that fit your criteria:
Oh thank you very much!
Boox just run normal Android out of the box, so you may be able to do what you want with one of those, no jailbreaking or OS flashing required.
Kobo ereaders are great. You can install Koreader/Plato on it super easily. Even on the stock OS you can load epubs/mobis/etc. via USB.
Best purchase I have ever made
Agreed, I have a Libra 2 that I loaded a ton of epubs from Anna’s archive.
Just to add to this. Interestingly enough Kobo brand runs Linux so it can be pretty easily modified. Tolino brand (the European brand name for the same Rakuten produced product) runs Android and is much more awkward to install different apps on.
I’ve had good luck with Pocketbook. They all run on a busy box kennel and can be pretty easily flashed. Since it’s just running Linux, you can also just load in alternative interfaces as apps that just run on the existing kernel
That’s interesting, I saw they were pretty inexpensive too, thanks
What do you want to jailbreak it for? Depending on, you won’t need to.
